   Everything was excellent. The chicken wasn’t as perfect as it usually was but everything else was on point.

   Food was good was just weird as we got everything separate. We got zucchini and onions by themselves and then the proteins. We looked over at the next table and that chef was doing it all together. We would have preferred that but it was still all very good.

   We had 6:45 reservations for our daughter’s bday & we weren’t seated until 7:30. Once we were seated we had no service for 10 minutes until someone came and moved us to another table. After we ordered they forgot part of our order. We would honestly never go back again. We were super disappointed and this was our first time there.

   Couldn’t get the bill right after multiple tries—too high by 25%. 30 minute process. Refills on drinks slow. Maybe busy Monday night. Cooking ok but process a bit more forced.

   Our teppan chef overcooked all the dishes, both vegetables and meats. Furthermore, the Salmon with avocado tartar sauce was not accompanied by sautéed udon noodles.

   I go to hibachi restaurants kind of often and we did not truly experience what we expected. We expected wildfires and shows of someone cooking for us. Instead, we had a boring almost leaking guy mix our food. The chicken, taste, spoiled smell, spoiled. the steak, and the lobster were small. there was no flavor. There are rice was not properly mixed well so you can see the white rice and the parts that did get some soy sauce. I was very unhappy with the service I do not recommend.
